This meal is super duper flexible. I had a half of a red pepper in my fridge so I cut that bad boy up and threw it in as well and it was DELICIOUS. I also added extra corn because, well, I love corn!
Ingredients:
1 cup dry quinoa
2 cups water or stock
1 cup frozen sweet corn kernels, thawed (fresh would be great, too, in season)
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
1 cup cooked beans (pinto or black work great)
1/2 cup good-quality BBQ sauce+ more if desired
1 avocado, sliced
Directions:
In a small sauce pan, bring the quinoa and water or stock to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and cook for 12-15 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and quinoa is cooked.
While the quinoa is cooking, place the corn, chicken, and beans in a large bowl. Once the quinoa is finished, place the hot quinoa on top of the other ingredients and stir to combine. Stir in the BBQ sauce. Top each bowl with 1/4 of the avocado slices. Drizzle the top with extra BBQ if desired. Serve and enjoy!
